The appellant Roshan Lilhare, convicted by the Principal District and Sessions Judge, Nagpur under Sections 302 and 201 of the IPC for the murder of his real brother Munish and for causing disappearance of evidence, challenged his conviction before the Bombay High Court (Nagpur Bench). The prosecution's case was entirely based on circumstantial evidence, including the fact that the brothers resided together, a quarrel was heard the night before, the accused was found cleaning blood-stained walls and floor after reporting the death, and a blood-stained wooden rafter was recovered from the spot. The accused denied the charge and alternatively argued that the death resulted from a sudden quarrel without premeditation, seeking alteration of the conviction to culpable homicide not amounting to murder under Exception 4 to Section 300 IPC. The postmortem revealed 13 injuries on the deceased, including multiple bone-deep lacerated wounds to the head, indicating severe force. The judgment text as provided does not record the final order of the High Court, as the proceedings appear to be at the stage of hearing and consideration.
